Dances with Wolves movie download Starting this month, Utah will be launching a new birth certificate that asks mothers more specific questions relating to the birth of their child.
According to the Salt Lake Tribune, the data collected from interviews with the mother and a review of medial records will be used to track information about the mothers’ actions and birth defects in their children. Utah’s current questionnaire was adopted in 1989 and contains outdated questions and responses; for example, there is no way to note if the mother is multiracial. In fact, the only options for race are American Indian, black, white, Japanese, or "etc."

The new survey was created in 2003 by the National Center for Health Statistics, and leaves out some of the information Utah collects today, such as if a baby has fetal alcohol syndrome and about the mother’s alcohol use during pregnancy. Women will still be asked about their cigarette use.

Early elective labor induction and voluntary Caesarean sections have been linked to the rise in the premature birth rate. Babies born even just a few weeks early are at risk for several serious birth defects, including respiratory and feeding problems, jaundice, long-term mental disabilities, and sudden death.

During pregnancy, it would be best if you never had to take medications, however, sometimes it is necessary for your overall wellbeing to take the medications. Some women with severe depression or other conditions face a difficult decision about taking their medications during pregnancy since some antidepressants have been shown to increase the risk of birth defects when taken during pregnancy. Such women may be advised that the benefits of taking an antidepressant during pregnancy outweigh the risks. While this may be partially true, some studies show Paxil is an antidepressant that has significant risks for pregnant women and their developing babies.
Studies have shown that Paxil can be linked to heart defects such as atrial and ventricular septal defects, which are characterized by holes in the walls of the chambers of the heart. Heart-related Paxil birth defects range in severity from minor, which may resolve without treatment, to severe conditions, which usually require surgical repair. It has also been shown that Paxil can be linked to PPHN (persistent pulmonary hypertension), which is a rare but life-threatening birth defect that can lead to multiple organ failure and death. PPHN requires prompt diagnosis and treatment, and can still prove fatal. Babies who survive the initial trauma of PPHN often suffer permanent damage affecting their hearing and speech as well as brain damage that can result in developmental delays and neurological deficits.
